They can descriminate against GA by charging high fees. The FAA
generally doesn't prohibit that.

There is something immoral about using public AIP funds to construct
an airport at which a pilot MUST pay a private corporation for the
right to use what his tax dollars have built.

Agreed!

Well than, there is no landing fee, we have "merely a
ramp fee" and no matter what you do, you pay or you
take their fuel at this horrid price of theirs.

You're saying that the airport operator (SJ county?) does not permit
aircraft, other than the one paying tie-down fees for a specific spot,
to park in rented parking spots?
That is very much true. The tie down is associated with the N number

It would seem that the firm operating the airport is unnecessarily
exposing itself to potential damage liabilities as a result of
implementing that policy, but I suppose the lease agreement forces the
lessee to give up those rights.
